Fun with friends




Yesterday was a golden day. A day of laughter, hugging, friendship and talk. We got together in Folsom, a quaint little town with shops and eateries. First we went to our friend Pat's lovely home. She had spread out some of her work on the table so we could see it. It was quite a spread. She is an awesome artist. Works in all dimensions. And totally mixed media. She is a shopper and finds the best bargains on ephemera and "stuff" to use. Amazing things. Well, she says it is time to start getting rid of part of her stash, and she had also set out boxes, bags and baskets of things for us to go through. We took what we wanted and the rest Char is taking to her Women's Aid thrift store.

Pat's home is in an utterly charming condo development that is so cleverly laid out, you don't even know it is one. It winds around through the foothills, with oak trees overhead. The pics are of the hydrangeas in her front yard, the gals at lunch, and a potting bench in a shop.

Thanks Pat for the lovely day with the Wackos.
